got him to run for the u.s. senate. here is what he said before the elections about why he thought things were going to sort of revert back to a republican norm in the i-4 corridor. >> the democrats are not making the numbers where they were four years ago. the i-4 corridor, hispanic polling in this area looks to favor romney and, in fact, early voting is going tremendously well among hispanics who are actually leading in the i-4 corridor. i think it's a terrific bit of news and we're just beginning to see a trend here that i think romney is closing strong. 6. >> obviously the trend was the other way because the most striking number to me among h hispanic voters for president obama was that he won cubans. >> he won cubans and that's another fundamental shift in the electorate. miami-dade has been a democratic county. the margins are astronomical. obama won by more than 200,000 votes which a lot of people would have thought was impossible a few years ago, maybe months ago. >> do we call the i-4 corridor a swing area anym
